Abstract
The purpose of this study was to look at the relationships between employee job
satisfaction and participatory management among staff members at the six Don Bosco
Secondary Schools in Ethiopia. In every organization, participatory management is
essential. Everyone in the organization is impacted by its management principles.
Employee involvement in decision-making boosts job satisfaction and enhances
organizational performance. In six Don Bosco Secondary Schools in Ethiopia, the
research report looks into the mechanisms that connect participatory management and
workers' job satisfaction. This study's four research goals were to analyze the
relationship between communication and job satisfaction, investigate the relationship
between cooperation and job satisfaction, assess the relationship between consultation
and job satisfaction, and assess the relationship between codetermination and job
satisfaction. This research was influenced by the theories of participation and shared
decision-making. Within the quantitative paradigm, a correlational research design was
used for the study. A sample of 165 of the 282 people that made up the target
demographic were chosen as respondents. However, there were 157 participants in
total. With the help of stratified random selection, the intended population was selected
from schools. With the help of the Statistical Package for Social Sciences, frequencies
and representations were used to evaluate and present the data (SPSS, version 23). The
results showed that communication, consultation, and codetermination have positive
relationships with each other, with r=.357/.000, r=.314/.000, and r=.407/.000,
respectively. This means that the three variables have a significant impact on
employees' job satisfaction in St. Don Bosco Secondary Schools. The study concluded
that communication, consultation, and codetermination are extremely important in any
organization, particularly in St. Don Bosco secondary schools, and that they must be
fostered for the improvement of the institutions and the satisfaction of the staff in their
places of employment. According to the study, management should value employees'
input and create a suitable incentive system to recognize and reward their
achievements. Employee participation in decision-making processes should also be
increased. Additionally, there is a need for management and staff to enhance
communication at all organizational levels
